Home to roughly 100,000 proud Chicagoans, Lakeview is a mix of energy. The neighborhood is unofficially divided into smaller enclaves: Lakeview East, West Lakeview, Southport Corridor, Boystown & Wrigleyville. It's a mix of the bustling, the peaceful and everything in between. Here you'll find tourists and residents alike vying for space at popular restaurants, cafes, biergartens, boutiques, parks & the lakefront. It's also home to many of the city's "bests" in several categories.
Pastoral is a wine and cheese kinda place. Or cheese and wine, depending on your priorities. The quaint deli counter space here also offers sandwiches to order and some local packaged goods. But did I mention the cheese? They know their stuff. Also, not pictured here, is their space next door that opens in the evening, Bar Pastoral. That's a place where they embrace their knowledge of wine – and is a popular neighborhood date spot.
